Where did you go

Where did you go?

As I was sitting alone in front of the fireplace
drinking a glass of white wine, I started
thinking back to the past and back to a time
that we were happy, back when I was yours
and you were mine.
I can remember we started out as friends
and I thought a friendship that would last for
life but then when we became lovers and
soon after I was your loving husband and you
were my beautiful wife, right then all the memories
of all the good times that we ever had came
rushing into my mind and you know what? Even
after all the bad times that we had I could
no longer find them.
Just what happened to us that is what I want
really want to know one day we were drinking
this bottle of white wine making love by our fireplace
as we have so many times, then one day I came
home you were gone where did you go? What
happened? What did I do wrong? You know what
baby? I still smile when I hear our song just know
that I still think about you every single day then
dream of you at night when I try to sleep, so you
know I am not mad at you, just hurt that I could not
ever get it right, I still love you that is why I set you
free and I will still be right here waiting If you ever
want to come back to me, If you are lost and you
want to find your way home just look up towards
the night sky, find the brightest star that you can find,
for I will be wishing on it too that one day you will
come back home to me and once again it will be
Me and You.

When I close my eyes

When I Close my Eyes I might not be able to change the world and I might not be able to change your mind I might not be able to make you love me but I can dream about It when I close  my eyes late at night when I am living somewhere in my mind for  that is where  I go every chance  When I want to escape All the violence and the hate a place where you and I walk hand and hand Down the peaceful streets At night after our date A place that is filled with laughter and tears drinking margaritas on the beach with you while we are dancing in the rain where I always smile and I forget all the pain a place where peace has won the war and race matter not any more where we can all now dance out in the streets rich or poor now all live next door to door a place where the sun shines every day and there are no dark clouds anymore where there are no chains that bind us all a...

It has been 10 years since I wrote my first book.

  "A story of one man's epic love for his son who is not of his blood." One day I was woken up by a dream I think it was really a nightmare I was alone or so I thought, I was seeing shadows and I kept hearing voices whispering in my ear so I started listening and writing it down, I still do that today. That was ten years ago and with those words, I wrote my first book., The Battle Lost: Ryder's Birth, It was a whopping fifty-two pages each a separate piece of poetry with extremely bad grammar, misspelled words, and no punctuation I had a good friend go through it when I got it back there were so many red marks I flashed back to high school. It has been on Amazon's top ten Epic Poetry (Free) in the Kindle Store for ten years. Ryder is now eleven years old and doing awesome it really was an epic battle physically, mentally, and emotionally fought in Parker County, Texas. DNA does not matter if you love that child enough and I Proved that. Actually, Attorney Bethel T...

Happily ever after amen.

Happily ever after amen.  Every now and then you will meet someone that makes your heart begin to pound so hard that it feels as if it will break through your chest or crack a few ribs at best, as you can hear  your blood flowing through  your veins like a mighty river fed by the rains of angry massive wintkrms to the sea also making it hard to breathe as you start to feel the heat coming from somewhere down deep in your soul smoldering until you see her beautiful face then your heated passion takes control igniting a raging fire the is now burning out of control as it feels like it is two hundred fifty degrees and your boiling from the inside, as tears fall from your eyes as their sheer beauty is so bright it leaves you feeling blind, and when they look up and smile at you the oh so real feeling of panic hits you right in the face as you freeze up talking nothing but gibberish losing all concept of speech and losing control of your knees falling to the ground as if you w...
